Subsidiaries

LVMH was formed by the merger of fashion house Louis Vuitton and Moet Hennessey in 1987. The company operates in over 70 countries and employs 125,000 people. There are 3,860 stores worldwide and the reach in Asia especially is growing significant pace. There is a historic energy that flows through the company and its long standing past will contribute to its vivacious future. They utilise the benefits of the digital era and have found a way to ensure their legendary craft appeals to generations to come. Their support for iconic and popular events has helped them to continually develop contemporary branding concepts. Personally, I find the choice of celebrity endorsements sublime. The company share price has been steadily rising for nearly ten years, and this dividend paying stock shows no signs of slowing down. LVMH truly epitomises what a luxury brand should be.

Their Christian Dior celebrity choices are of the highest quality in entertainment.
